Abstract

Abstract:Emily Dickinson’s most important books were the hand-sewn manuscript books she made for her own verse and that no one read or saw before she died. Acts of spiritual testimony, their closest poetic forebear is surely the Bay Psalm Book, which was a conscious effort to deliver a literal translation of the Hebrew language that was the vehicle for making contact with God. Dickinson’s fascicles are thus books of revelation, dramatic performances meant to bear witness rather than deliver messages or solicit interpretation. They are pre-eminently driven by metrics not meanings.

艾米丽·迪金森的禁书

摘要：艾米莉·狄金森最重要的书是她为自己的诗歌手工缝制的手稿，在她去世之前没有人读或看到。作为精神见证，他们最接近的诗歌祖先无疑是《海湾诗篇》，这本书是有意识地翻译希伯来语，这是与上帝接触的工具。因此，狄金森的分册是启示之书，戏剧表演旨在见证，而不是传递信息或寻求解读。它们主要是由指标而非意义驱动的。

期刊介绍： Studies in Romanticism was founded in 1961 by David Bonnell Green at a time when it was still possible to wonder whether "romanticism" was a term worth theorizing (as Morse Peckham deliberated in the first essay of the first number). It seemed that it was, and, ever since, SiR (as it is known to abbreviation) has flourished under a fine succession of editors: Edwin Silverman, W. H. Stevenson, Charles Stone III, Michael Cooke, Morton Palet, and (continuously since 1978) David Wagenknecht. There are other fine journals in which scholars of romanticism feel it necessary to appear - and over the years there are a few important scholars of the period who have not been represented there by important work.
